POLA PERTUMBUHAN DIMENSI PANJANG DAN LINGKAR TUBUH BABI LANDRACE

Penelitian pola pertumbuhan panjang dan lingkar tubuh babi Landrace dilakukan di kandang pembibitan diDesa Buduk Kabupaten Badung dan di kandang penggemukan di Desa Senganan Kabupaten Tabanan. Penelitianini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pola pertumbuhan panjang dan lingkar tubuh babi Landrace. Sampel yang digunakandalam penelitian ini terdiri dari 15 ekor jantan dan 15 ekor betina yang berasal dari 5 ekor induk. Pengukuranpanjang dan lingkar tubuh anak babi dilakukan setiap 3 minggu sekali, yaitu dimulai pada umur 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,18 dan 21 minggu. Pengukuran panjang tubuh dilakukan dengan cara mengukur dari bagian anterior vertebraecervicales primum sampai tuber sacrale dengan menggunakan meteran, lingkar tubuh diukur dengan cara melingkariregion vertebrae lumbales primum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jenis kelamin berpengaruh sangatnyata (P0,05) terhadap ukuran tubuhbabi Landrace. Terdapat interaksi yang sangat nyata (P<0,01) antara jenis kelamin dengan umur terhadap ukuranpanjang dan lingkar tubuh babi Landrace. Panjang dan lingkar tubuh babi Landrace jantan dan betina mempunyaipola pertumbuhan logistik. Panjang tubuh babi Landrace jantan mempunyai kecepatan pertumbuhan lebih besardaripada yang betina, sedangkan lingkar tubuh babi Landrace jantan mempunyai kecepatan pertumbuhan lebihkecil daripada yang janta

VASEKTOMI DAN PEMOTONGAN TARING MONYET EKOR PANJANG (Macaca fascicularis) DI LOKASI WISATA ULUWATU

Population growth and aggressiveness are important factors on macaque populations in which their habitats are used as tourist destinations. Controlling those two factors may decrease the negative impact of population both to its surrounding environment and to the internal circumstance of population. This Community Service was packed as a vasectomy and canine cutting services on the adult male of long tailed macaques occupying a tourist destination of Uluwatu, Badung Regency. Vasectomy is a surgical division of all or part of vas deferens to induce sterility. Surgical resection of part of vas deferens used a bilateral slicing method. Additional medical treatments were also performed according to cases encountered in field. During this performance, one selected adult male was vasectomy-surged and four adult males subjected to canine cutting. An operation of removing rubber encircling the neck of a juvenile macaque was done successfully. Moreover, uprooting snare tied the left leg (near tarsal region) of sub adult male was also performed successfully. A week later, Uluwatu manajement reported that all individuals formerly subjected to medical treatments were in good health and their wounds went to be healing completely

VASEKTOMI PADA MONYET EKOR PANJANG (MACACA FASCICULARIS)DI LOKASI WISATA SANGEH

ABSTRACT Growth population control on the animal population dwelling a restricted habitat is very important to decrease, especially the negative impact on its surrounding environment. This Community Service was conducted as an application of vasectomy on an adult male of long tailed macaque occupying the tourist destination of Sangeh. This was the choosen method to overcome the overcrowded population. Vasectomy is surgical division of all or part of the vas deferens to induce sterility. One selected adult male monkey was anesthetized successfully using blowpipe. Surgical resection of part of vas deferens used a bilateral slicing method. Vasectomy was fully done nearly in one hour, and the monkey was released to habitat in the following three days of captivity. </em
